[Tails-ux] Greeter revamp: prototype time?

Here[0] is how your thought fleshed out.

Other OS '+/-' dialogs showcase the setting type settings at the
destination, as opposed to the origin. However, given the amount of
content on the destination dialog, there isn't enough room. The origin
dialog seems to be the most suitable place for these settings.

The size is significantly larger, so, popover dialogs with arrows won't
be as clear as popover dialogs without arrows, i.e., hover isn't as
clear as click (and it doesn't allow for removal of settings from Check
& Go screen). Besides, all dialogs that look the same function the
same, or at least should, and the function on 'Universal Access' is
enjoyable and clear.

Administrative Account
-----------------------
This setting has a second state when an administrative account has been
configured.

I am unsure of any security issues with displaying the password, or
providing an option to, so I did not include it; are there any?

'Log Out' might not be the best task, or label, but it seems reasonable.

MAC Spoofing
-------------
Are there any more options that can, or need to be, shown here?

Is there any issue with showing the real and spoofed MAC addresses?

Network Configuration
----------------------
Can, and should, we add more detailed configuration here?

The second option (the OR) is closest to what we have now but I am
unclear as to the function of the "Configure bridge, firewall, or proxy
settings" option. The selecting of it prompts the network configuration
flow after the Greeter but the first screen of the flow displays the
same question posed here at the Greeter, so I feel it isn't needed,
especially since there is no explanation of what to expect next.

Desktop Camouflage
-------------------
We can easily stack more camouflages (themes) in the list here. Getting
the themes isn't so easy it seems. It is important to try and
future-proof the experience.

Batch Add Settings
-------------------
I am not in favor of discoverable things when it comes to operation, in
this case, running Tails. However, it seems reasonable to expect people
to be familiar with the experience of selecting multiple items in a list
at the same time. Using this to our benefit, we can avoid using check
boxes :)

Thanks :) Is there any documentation on this session?
